About This Item

Olympic.jpg

To commemorate my first 50 finds! This 'January 2007 Geocoin Club Geocoin' is a distance finder to help navigate on its Olympic journey to stop in as many countries as possible before its return to Vancouver in 2010.

"The Olympic flag [...] has a white background, with five interlaced rings in the centre : blue, yellow, black, green and red [...] This design is symbolic ; it represents the five continents of the world, united by Olympism, while the six colours are those that appear on all the national flags of the world at the present time." (1931) Textes choisis II, p.470.

PLEASE PLACE THIS COIN in a cache that may be visited by travelers from all over the world. I will be posting a listing of all countries that the coin has visited... alphabetically, just like in the opening ceremonies. Perhaps we could reach 50 countries in the next 3 years???

I hope it returns to me by 2010! Happy caching 'til then...

This coin has gone to:

CANADA, GERMANY, ITALY, NETHERLANDS, SOUTH AFRICA, UNITED KINGDOM (ENGLAND & NORTHERN IRELAND), USA
